00:01Just about every nation in the world admits immigrants.
00:05But there's something unique about America.
00:08We don't simply welcome new immigrants.
00:11We are born of immigrants.
00:13That is who we are.
00:15Immigration is our origin story.
00:17And for more than two centuries,
00:19it's remained at the core of our national character.
00:22It's our oldest tradition.
00:23It's who we are.
00:25It's part of what makes us exceptional.
00:27We can never say it often or loudly enough.
00:31Immigrants and refugees revitalize and renew America.
